Want to break the cycle of poverty?
The key is good nutrition. Promote health, you’re on the path of eliminating poverty.
According to a new report from Cornell University researchers, nearly half of American children – including 90 percent of black children and 90 percent of children who spend their childhoods in single-parent households – will eat meals paid for by food stamps at some point during childhood.
